"Fortress of Peace" by Natasha Erskine

The Lord has recently released me to write some new music and explore the ministry of His Spirit in prophetic worship... He's been ministering to me with these lyrics I started writing several weeks ago. They don't feel finished yet and this is just a portion of he song, but I felt a strong desire to share them:

(After the crying out of a child under a heavy load, the Lord gently responds...)

Child of mine, seek me and findTry me and see, find peace in ChristLet this world go and seek after meand the kingdom of my loveTake hold now of me...Lay your burdens down! Lay your burdens down!

(After the child again crying out, unable to shake the heavy load...) - this part is really soulful :)

Child of mine, open your eyes!The dead things have passedFind new life in ChristAll that I am, I've opened my hand!There's no hindrance than to keep you from rest...Lay your burdens down! Lay your burdens down!
